<p style="text-align: justify;">I found interesting tips on how you can tie your sneakers with style. There are 15 ways, so you can change the way you tie your sneakers every day or every week. Try to play around with the color. I believe you will look amazing and people will ask you to teach them how.</p>
<p><span id="more-331"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/ladder_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-332" title="Ladder Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/ladder_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The laces then go straight up and are fed into the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are crossed over and are fed under the vertical lace section on the opposite sides of the shoe before going straight up and into the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">At the top set of eyelets, the laces can once again cross over and pass under the straight section as shown. This not only looks consistent with the rest of the lacing but also forms a High Lace Lock, which tightens the lacing even more firmly.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/zipper_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-333" title="Zipper Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/zipper_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are looped back under the lace where it feeds under the side of the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are then crossed over each other, then they go under and out through the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Steps 2 and 3 are repeated until both ends reach the top eyelets.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/double_back_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-334" title="Double Back Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/double_back_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across the second set of eyelets from the top of the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over and feed into the fourth set of eyelets, skipping the third set.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Continue down the shoe, two sets of eyelets at a time.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">At the bottom, run the laces vertically between the bottom and second from bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Double back and work your way back up the shoe through the vacant sets of eyelets.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/loop_back_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-335" title="Loop Back Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/loop_back_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The left (red) end is spiralled up the left side of the shoe, with the end fed under and emerging from each eyelet.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The right (orange) lace is spiralled up the right side of the shoe, at each eyelet looping through the left (blue) lace in the middle of the shoe before feeding under and emerging from the next eyelet.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/bushwalk_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-336" title="Bushwalk Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/bushwalk_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">One end of the lace (orange end) runs straight up the right side, is fed into and runs straight across the second set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up the left side, each skipping one eyelet before feeding in two eyelets higher up.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Continue running both ends across the shoe, then straight up two eyelets at a time.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">At the top of the shoe, the laces end up on the same side and the shoelace knot is tied at that point.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/sawtooth_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-337" title="Sawtooth Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/sawtooth_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across the bottom and the ends are fed into both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">One end of the lace (orange end) runs straight up the right side, emerges from and runs straight across the second set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The other end (red end) runs diagonally underneath and skipping the second set of eyelets, emerges from and runs straight across the third set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Continue running each lace diagonally across and up two sets of eyelets until one end (orange as in the example) reaches the top right eyelet.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The other end (red in the example) runs straight up the left side to emerge from the top left eyelet.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/footbag_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-338" title="Footbag Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/footbag_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across and emerges from the third set of eyelets from the bottom.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends run straight down and are fed into the second set of eyelets from the bottom.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends again run straight down and emerge from the bottom set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up along the outside and are fed into the fourth set of eyelets (the first vacant pair).</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are crossed over each other, then they go under and out through the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Repeat step 5 until both ends reach the top.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/display_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-339" title="Display Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/display_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and is fed into rather than emerging from both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are crossed over, then inserted into the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">This process is repeated until both ends reach the top eyelets and end up inside.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/hash_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-340" title="Hash Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/hash_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Skipping two sets of eyelets, cross the ends over and feed into the fourth set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight down one eyelet and emerge from the third set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Continue up the shoe, each time crossing over and going up three sets of eyelets, then straight down to emerge from the next set of eyelets below.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/twistie_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-341" title="Twistie Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/twistie_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run straight across the bottom and emerges through both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends are twisted together with one complete twist in the middle of the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The ends then continue across to the opposite sides, where they go under and out through the next set of eyelets up the shoe.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">This process is repeated until both ends reach the top eyelets.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/hidden_knot_style1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-343" title="Hidden Knot Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/hidden_knot_style1.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across the bottom and emerges from both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over and feed into the fourth set of eyelets up the shoe (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up and emerge from the fifth set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over and feed into the second set of eyelets up the shoe (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up and emerge from the third set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over, feed under and emerge from the top set of eyelets (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/riding_bow_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-344" title="Riding Bow Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/riding_bow_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace is run diagonally and emerges from the bottom left and the top right eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The top (red) end of the lace is zig-zagged from the top set of eyelets down to the middle eyelets in a similar manner to the shoe shop lacing.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">The bottom (orange) end of the lace is similarly zig-zagged from the bottom set of eyelets up to the middle eyelets.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/checkerboard_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-345" title="Checkerboard Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/checkerboard_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">Start with two pairs of different color laces, preferably the wide, flat variety.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">With one color (orange in the example), lace the shoe using either Straight (Fashion) or Straight (Lazy) lacing.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">With the other color (red in the example), start at the bottom of the shoe and weave the lace in and out of the other lace until you reach the top.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Fold around the top lace and head back down, weaving out and in until you reach the bottom.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Continue across the shoe until you&#8217;re out of room or out of lace, whichever comes first.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Tuck all the loose ends of the laces into the shoe.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/lattice_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-346" title="Lattice Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/lattice_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li style="text-align: left;">The lace runs straight across the bottom and emerges from both bottom eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over and feed into the fourth set of eyelets up the shoe (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up and emerge from the fifth set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over and feed into the second set of eyelets up the shoe (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Both ends now run straight up and emerge from the third set of eyelets.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Cross the ends over, feed under and emerge from the top set of eyelets (skip past 2 sets of eyelets).</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/bi_colour_style.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-347" title="BI-Colour Style" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/bi_colour_style.jpg" alt="" width="430" height="359" /></a></p>
<ol style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Take two different color laces, each a tiny bit longer than the correct length for the shoes.</li>
<li>Cut them not quite in half, but offset by two or three centimetres.</li>
<li>Tie one shorter piece of one color (orange in the example) and one longer piece of the other color (red in the example) firmly together and trim off the excess. For extra security, add a dab of glue. Use the remaining pieces to make the bi-color lace for the other shoe.</li>
<li>Pull the longer (red) end out through the bottom right eyelet, feeding from inside the shoe, until you reach the joining knot.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Now lace the rest of the shoe as per Straight (Fashion) lacing.</li>
</ol>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/video_wallpaper.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-327" title="Set Video As Wallpaper" src="http://www.simplydunn.net/images/2008/10/video_wallpaper.jpg" alt="" width="429" height="296" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are many ways you can do to maximize the apperance of your desktop. You can set your favorite picture as your desktop wallpaper, or you can use more than one pictures as your wallpaper using <a title="Desktop Wallpaper Changer" href="http://www.simplydunn.net/2008/09/23/desktop-wallpaper-changer.html/" target="_blank">desktop wallpaper changer</a>. But having a video as your desktop wallpaper, this is something that not everybody aware that it&#8217;s possible. Do you want to know how to do it? I found it in <a title="Enable DreamScene Video Wallpaper in Windows XP and non-Ultimate Vista, using VLC media player" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12694" target="_blank">WinMatrix</a>. Just do these steps as follows:</p>
<p><span id="more-326"></span></p>
<ol>
<li>Download, install and run <strong><a title="VLC Media Player" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html" target="_blank">VLC media player</a></strong></li>
<li>Go to <strong>Setting</strong> -&gt; <strong>Preference</strong> -&gt; <strong>Interface</strong> -&gt; <strong>Main Interfaces</strong>, then click on <strong>wxWidgets</strong>.</li>
<li>Click on <strong>Advance Options</strong>, then uncheck the <strong>Taskbar</strong> and check on <strong>Systray Icon</strong>.</li>
<li>Go to <strong>Video</strong> -&gt; <strong>Output Module</strong> -&gt; <strong>DirectX.</strong></li>
<li>On the bottom right corner, check the <strong>Advanced Options</strong> in order to see all the settings available.</li>
<li>Check the <strong>Enable Wallpaper Mode</strong>.</li>
<li>Select <strong>Playlist</strong> and check the <strong>Repeat Current Item</strong>.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Save</strong> button when done.</li>
<li>Restart your player.</li>
<li>Open and play any video that you would like to set as wallpaper.</li>
<li>Right click on the video and click on <strong>Wallpaper</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you do not configure VLC Player to repeatedly play current media in loop, you can still do so after playing the video. Simply click on <strong>View</strong> then select <strong>Playlist</strong>. Highlight the video media content that is playing and click on <strong>Repeat One</strong> or <strong>Repeat All</strong> button as shown below to loop the video for non-stop video wallpaper.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The video must be encoded in a video format supported by VLC Player such as MPEG, MP4, WMV, AVI, FLV and etc. Or else you will need to convert the video clip to the supported format.</p>
